Group Camping Party Size

A regular group camping party must consist of a minimum of 15 adults (an adult is anyone 16 years and older) or more.

A youth group camping party must consist of a minimum of 12 people or more. A youth group means a K-12 school, recreation centre or not-for-profit youth organization located within BC, undertaking a camping or day-use trip.

Group Campsite Reservation Policies

Reservations for group campsites can be made up to 12 months in advance of your arrival date.

For statutory holiday weekends, a minimum length of stay of 3 nights is required for a group camping reservation; all fees are non-refundable.

Arriving at the park with more people or vehicles than stated in the group reservation will result in additional fees, or unavailability of additional accommodation.

Reservations are not transferable. Any reservation owners or holders found to be transferring or selling their reservations to another party, risk the chance that their reservation may be cancelled without a refund. If a customer can no longer use their reservation, they are encouraged to cancel their reservation so that any unused User Fees that are not forfeited as a penalty, can be automatically refunded to the credit card that made the original reservation.

Regular group camping fees:
The fee per night for the regular use of a frontcountry group campsite is calculated by adding together:

the group camping base fee for the site established in the fee schedule [PDF 148KB]; and,

per person charges which are calculated by:
multiplying the number of adults (age 16+) by $5, with a minimum charge of $75 (15 adults); and,
multiplying the number of children (age 6 to 15) by $1.

Youth group (means a K-12 school, recreation centre or not-for-profit youth organization located within BC) camping fee:
The fee per night for the use of a frontcountry group campsite by a youth group is $1/person (age 6 and
older) with a minimum charge of $50/groupsite. The $50/groupsite/night minimum includes the first 50
people. The maximum charge is $150/groupsite/night.
